Fighting YHWH – Acts 5:29

Welcome to Scriptures for Life with TorahFamily.org. Taking time to focus on the Father’s way.

Acts 5:29 - Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey God rather than men!”

This verse shows the attitude we should have when facing opposition. However, let’s continue reading from verse 33 and see what else needs to be considered.

Acts 5:34-39 - But a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, who was honored by all the people, stood up in the Sanhedrin and ordered that the men be put outside for a little while. Then he addressed them: “Men of Israel, consider carefully what you intend to do to these men. Some time ago Theudas appeared, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men rallied to him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing. After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census and led a band of people in revolt. He too was killed, and all his followers were scattered. Therefore, in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God.”

I’ve read all of this to simply ask you this one question…
“If someone was standing against you, would they find themselves fighting God?”

Let this be a focus in your time of meditation throughout the day. Until next time, Shalom.
